Debra Messing is on the cover of the January issue of Shape and the 40-year-old mom of Roman, now four, said she was left hurt and "depressed" by tabloid critics who said she didn't drop the baby weight fast enough. Well, I think they can eat crow now - she looks fantastic!
The former Will & Grace star said, "It was written about in the tabloids a lot. On one page it showed all the actresses who got skinny in six weeks or less (after giving birth), and on the other page was me! I was so depressed and frustrated."
Debra has lost 42 pounds in the past three years but admits she struggled to find time to work out with such a busy schedule. I think most moms can relate to that!
She said, "I was exhausted! I couldn't work out three hours a day and do my job as a mother and an actress. So I took the pressure off. I cut back on seeing the trainer but started eating healthier.
"Ultimately I'm very proud of how I dropped the weight because I think it was the healthy approach. I've finally taken ownership of my body."
